How to talk to children about the climate crisis
This event is in the past
Engaging in conversations with our children around the climate crisis can feel challenging – especially when we don’t have all the answers. How can we talk to our children about the climate crisis in a responsible, respectful and informative way that doesn’t immediately fill them with dread, guilt and fear?
Join Kit Marie Rackley as they dive into this difficult topic, sharing their approach to empowering young people to challenge information and opinions, and gain the confidence to present, justify and act, delivered through poetry and an informative talk.
This activity is part of Mind, Body, Earth, a programme that seeks to provide empathetic spaces where anxieties about our climate and the future can be safely expressed and explored, developed in partnership with Norfolk and Waveney Mind.
